“It was tough out there. It was blowing a lot more than yesterday. It wasn’t easy at all,” said the Frenchman.
“The long game was tough and the putting was even worse, I thought.
“I struggled a little bit. I had a big putt on the fourth that helped me a lot, and made a birdie after that.
“So that helped me get the round going. After that it was very solid for the most part. I wish I could have maybe holed a couple more at the end but it is what it is and one more round to go.
“I feel like I missed a lot of opportunities but I still shot four under, so in those conditions it’s pretty good. That helps me for the confidence and hopefully I can use that for tomorrow.”
